American People of Aquamist remember your Saturn Days and choose Methanol and 50/50 makes very good and impressive effects on engines, expecially diesels. Guess to have reminded something to someone working in NASA

Careful, I think methylated spirits are different things altogether in different countries.

What is known as metho in Oz and NZ is not the same as what it is in the USA. Alcoholics drink metho in Oz!!!! [not me, I'd prefer a beer].

Methylated spirits (metho) is in fact mostly ethanol (alcohol) which is found in beer/spirit. (do not drink metho it contains ipecac so you throw it up if you do)

Methanol (used for injection) is very similar and is classed as an alcohol due to its -OH group, but has one less carbon and there for has a lower boiling point/flashpoint . NEVER drink/mix drinks with methanol, its highly toxic.

Meth... that's another story :roll:
